Title: System and method for selective encryption of input data during a retail transaction
Inventor: WESTON TIMOTHY M
IPC: G07F7/10
Filed: 2006-07-19
Granted: 2013-07-04
Abstract: A retail environment having retail terminals with data entry point devices selectively encrypts input received by the data entry point devices and passes the encrypted data to a security module.
